The picture of the Elderly


Angelica was a beautiful 25-year-old, highly intelligent and studious lover of art, mainly paintings, one night walking home after a hard day of work, ran into a sort of box that was wrapped with cloth, which was wet and dirty, he looked like someone had thrown.

Angelica raised him from the ground, I remove the cloth that covered it, and I am fascinated to see that it was the picture of an old woman with a cute smile, Angelica did not hesitate to take it home, and only thought as it was possible a work of art so beautiful is shot like garbage.

Upon arriving home, Angelica put the box in his room in the wall facing opposite his bed, and lay down to sleep that night, at dawn, Angelica was awakened by a noise that I hear in his room, was Just a little bump on the wall, but I was so tired that he preferred to continue sleeping.

The next morning, as he dressed for going out to work, Angelica saw a small change in the face of the old box, something almost imperceptible for people without knowledge in the art, but she could see that the face of the old lady no longer smiled as before, was something more serious, Angelica thought maybe as it was night, had not been well, so that was no more.

That night in his sleep, Angeica was again awakened, but this time it was not a knock on the wall, was now a sort of whisper in the ear, someone had said his name, I woke up a little astonished, turned on the light of the lamp, and looking at the picture of the ancicana, I notice that this was staring at her, with totally straight face, as when a person is angry or uncomfortable, Angelica this if it seemed very strange and a bit sinister, but thought it was just a painting, I try not to think about it and go back to sleep, but after a while you turn off the light, felt I was not alone in the darkness of his room, there was someone else, a presence.

Angelica felt a hand grab it by the throat and would not let her breathe, she fought, and whatever it was that was holding released her, immediately turned on the light, and to the horror and surprise of Angelica, the face of the old woman the table, was staring, but his face now was evil, his gaze was totally different to the table she found that night, Angelica was scared, I start painting from the wall and ran downstairs, but instead of getting rid of she hung in the room, and returned to his room and closed the door of the room, was very frightened, and began to suspect that since he brought the painting home, had begun all those things happen, Angelica took the decision to get rid of the paint in the early hours of the morning.

Angelica attempt to continue sleeping, because even were 3 am, but before I could fall asleep, heard laughter coming from the room, and a noise of someone walking, she jumped stay out of bed, his heart pounding very fast, I left the room and under the stairs, everything was dark, but not heard anything or laughter, or steps, Angelica did not dare turn on the lights for fear of what might be found, so had a torch was lit furniture, the floor, and that was when he saw footprints ... .alguien had walked ... that ... denuevo the sinister laugh, Angelica lit old paint, and there was nothing there ... .we had no one in the picture, was just a black space, without any kind of Paint.
